To steal a line from Churchill, the best argument against communism is an online conversation with a self-proclaimed communist. Either they adopt the label to be edgy without substance, or they are second rate intellectuals who are condescending to anyone who hasn't studied the sacred Marxist texts

A magnificent piece of work. Comprehesive, revelatory & shocking. Journalism this good is always rare & precious but never moreso than at times like this. Latter day Lord Haw Haws being plumped, preened & delivered to your doorstep in plain sight by a Nazi-saluting goon news.sky.com/story/the-x-...

🇮🇱We obtained leaked high-level Israeli government documents. They reveal how the Israeli government waged a ten-year lobbying campaign in Britain to protect its officials from war crimes arrests. www.declassifieduk.org/israel-lobbi...

If you debate to convince others, you will very seldom win. However, if you debate to improve your own understanding of a topic, you will never lose.

Apparently, the man accused of the train attack is a Southampton resident. Anti-refugee campaigners believe that if one refugee commits a crime, all should be blamed. I am worried. Applying the same logic, they will soon be calling for the entire population of Southampton to soon be deported.

Our taxes paid for this?

Indiana Jones, Han Solo, and Dr. Richard Kimble call Donald Trump the greatest criminal in history for his attacks on science and climate policy.

Nuclear deterrence is not a dick measuring contest. If you have enough nukes to destroy the world several times over, the number the other guys have is irrelevant. A stupid escalation:

Excellent reporting from Carole Cadwaller. Our democracy is broken: broligarchy.substack.com/p/the-cleava...

I have watched Your Party with interest. I like Zarah. However, they seem to have brought factionalism with them when they left Labour. Too much infighting. Too much bullshit. Can they stop threatening to sue themselves? They need to sort themselves out or die as an entity. Fast.

I've heard people tell me that George Soros paid people to attend the No Kings protest. And an anti-racism march I attended in Southampton. No evidence is ever provided. Blaming wealthy Jews for funding any opinion you don't like is blatant anti-Semitism. Disgusting.

Democracy in the US is being destroyed - and it's not even subtle. New column on how Donald Trump is put the Hungarian playbook into practise 👇 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Israel was not happy with a coffin's contents. Instead of complaining diplomatically, they bombed, and killed 104 Palestinians, including 35 children. Calling this a "ceasefire" is insane. Israel is clearly out of control.

Meet Katie Lam, Tory MP for the Weald of Kent since July 2024, who wants to emulate Idi Amin by expelling millions of legal immigrants from the UK @iandunt.bsky.social outlines the ex Goldman Sachs banker's depravity, and how it can be countered.

Lisa Nandy lied to Parliament twice re. the Aston Villa ban. She claimed the ban was due to worries about violence to Jewish fans and that the ban was unprecedented. Two lies in the same short debate. Blatant breach of the ministerial code. She must resign. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

"You need an expansive political imagination, one that can anticipate the tyrant’s next move and understand its logic without obeying it." My latest: sarahkendzior.substack.com/p/inventing-...

Judge Goodstein refuses to hand over voter data to the DOJ. Then her house blows up. Another amazing coincidence! timesofindia.indiatimes.com/world/us/wat...

An Australian activist from the flotilla has told how when he was imprisoned, he had his arm dislocated, and head slammed into the ground. Another Australian prisoner had her medicine confiscated, putting her at severe risk of a stroke. Israel is not a civilized nation.

I despair at UK politics. Starmer is a fully authoritarian genocide denier arresting grannies. Badenoch and Jenrick have gone full Liz Truss. YourParty has torn itself apart at birth. Farage is a traitor dressed in a flag. The Greens and Lib Dems look like the only serious parties in Westminster.

Recently, vtubers (cartoon avatar streamers) have been popular. No issue in gaming, but they have no place in politics. Politics is a place for sharks. Lies, big money and foreign powers fool you and make you angry. Every political streamer should have a name and a face. No VTubers. No AI voices.

America is using their intelligence services to undermine Danish sovereignty in Greenland. America is no longer a trustworthy ally. www.youtube.com/watch?v=XwU8...

This, by @jasonhickel.bsky.social, is the clearest explanation I have yet read of why the US and UK governments continue to support the Israeli government, regardless of its great crimes against humanity. jasonhickel.substack.com/p/why-does-t...

This should be headline news - the implications are horrifying …

Behind every draconian decision, there's secret evidence ("detailed security assessments") we're not allowed to see. We should just suck it up and believe them. Sorry, Yvette Cooper, that's not how democracy should work. When you make a decision of such consequence, we need to see the basis for it.

After the recent Bob Vylan controversy, when will police investigate this genocidal publication: www.telegraph.co.uk/news/politic...

I am extremely disturbed by Israels recent attack on Iran. This was largely unprovoked, and Iran is, I believe, the 4th independent state that Israel has attacked militarily in the past year. Israel is a rogue state.

A party of racists and conmen: bylinetimes.com/2025/04/30/r...

Deeply disturbing:https://www.reddit.com/r/changemyview/comments/1k8b2hj/meta_unauthorized_experiment_on_cmv_involving/ If this approach is allowed to proceed, expect future internet comment forums to be flooded with AI generated astroturfing. Public discourse destroyed.

In Britain, there are lots of ways to get rid of a bad PM fast. Witness Truss. What about the US? Are Impeachment and lead the only routes? Both put the VP in charge, and JDE is just as bad as Trump. A democratic system that doesn't allow a swift course change to correct failure is a bad system.

You think the arbitrary arrest of political dissenters cannot happen in the UK? It already does. www.quaker.org.uk/news-and-eve...

In America, even with a valid study visa, you can be picked up off the street at random and detained by homeland security (if you’re a Muslim that co-writes something that the government doesn’t agree with). Land of the free? Whoever told you that is your enemy. This is Soviet level shit.

So what? The majority of the population of this country thinks Brexit was a mistake. Labour has to fight the Tories and reform over something, and this is a much better battleground to fight on than most. Would you rather the Tory press pick the battleground?

Someone fire the writers for "real life". The plot of the current season is completely ridiculous. The show has completely jumped the shark.

I'm concerned that given the situation in the US, we are about to enter a global recession. The UK government has already made cuts to winter fuel payments and to people with disabilities. How will they react if things become truly nasty. Will they have any clue at all as to how to respond?
